I have a tablix which has a group A, B, C.
The dataset has values for A, values for B, and values for C.
Inside I have a grouping with details.
So:
A
v1 1
v2 2
sub 3
B
v3 3
sub 3
C
v4 4
v5 5
sub 9
sub is the subtotals of the details in the group.
How can I grab the sets of details from A and add them to B, but not C?
Before I did an if statement and used "Running Total", which helped for numbers and summing, but what about details, such as strings?
Otherwise, all the data is in the dataset. If you're nested in a grouping, is there still a way to get all the data of a dataset and ignore the group on?
Thanks for any help!

I want to create a report. Grouped by month (from date1) there should be counted how many records match for property1 has value A, B, C, D ... and property2 1, 2 or 3. Additionally there should be grouped by the same month (but this time from date2) property3 has value A, B, C, D ... and property2 1, 2 or 3.
I created two querys that count the amount of matching records for each combination of property1 and 2 (Property3 and 2 respective). But how can I make the result be grouped by the same month in one report?
formatting the date to show month only in both queries. creating a third query, adding the first two, conecting the month-fields, add all the other counting-field, create the form based on the third query.
I'm creating a SSRS-report where I need to group my values and do another grouping based on the grouped values. Then I also want to limit the records on each row.
Now my table look like this (but with maybe 50 values):
A
A
A
B
C
C
D
E
E
F
(ignore the bullets, it was the only way to get the values vertical)
I want my table to fit in one page and become horizontal and be grouped.
The result I'm after look like this:
A, B, C,
D, E, F
I writing this in MDX because I need to have data direct from the cube.
I would have a great solution if i didn't have to group the values together.
It's was to use the ceiling-function (ceiling(rownumber(nothing) mod 6)) in ColumnGroup and (=ceiling(rownumber(nothing) / 6)) in RowGroup.
Has someone a solution, maybe a nested expression to both group the values and then do the ceiling trick?
Perhaps you can add a calculated field to the dataset, GroupID, with a value based on the position in the alphabet and your paging requirement.
For example :
Letter GroupID
A-F 1
G-L 2
M-Q 3
Next you can group similar to below.
Column Group 1 Expression = GroupID
Column Group 2 Expression = Letter
You may wish to place a page break after group for Group1 to force repeats on a new page.
I have data in my database table which looks similar to the data below :
Time Name Sales
Aug-11 A 33
Aug-12 B 34
Aug-13 C 31
Aug-14 D 39
Sep-11 A 99
Sep-12 B 34
The requirement is that I need to build a report for A details ,another report for B details ,and another for C details and so on. There Could be a D and E added to the database table next month and some more data the month later...
I want to know if there is a way that I can create the reports dynamically , rather than creating a report for A, B and C now and then going into the report and creating another report for D and E next month and soo on..
Please let me know.
Create a report with a parameter #Name , Create a Drop down List using query something like
SELECT DISTINCT Name
FROM Table_Name
for user to select A, B or C and in parameter properties you can choose it to be a multiple selection and create a query something like
SELECT Time, Name , Sales
FROM Table_Name
WHERE (Name IN (#Name_Pram))
You will have to create 2 Data sets one for the drop down list from where users will select Name parameter, selected value(s) will be passed to the above query , One report will show details for any selected values.
I'm trying to create a report in SSRS where I have a matrix, which has gender as the column headings and specifically defined agegroups as the rows. The report is sorted by date (ie, the records being displayed are filtered by the modifedAt value). My problem is that i wish for all of the age group categories to be displayed, even if the dataset does not return any data for that row.
So, for example, if i set the date to be a date where there are no db rows where there are Age5-16 children in - I still want to display the category name, but just have the cells related to that row to display '0'. Instead, the report just drops the whole row because, obviously the query returns no data.
Is the solution to have a separate dataset that brings back the entire list of categories and then somehow fit them together? I'm stuck here so any help is appreciated!
I can think of a few ways to do this:
DataSet level
Instead of just returning the relevant data in the underlying data in the DataSet, include all the categories you want to display in all cases.
e.g. For a database query it might be the difference between an inner and left join, i.e. going from something like:
select *
from AgeGroup
inner join MyData on ...
to:
select *
from AgeGroup
left join MyData on ...
So the report always has all the age groups to display. Where there are NULL values, just display 0.
I think this is the best option if you have control over the DataSet - you won't have to update your report at all, with luck the actual DataSet changes should be minimal, there is still only one DataSet call, and it's by far the simplest to maintain.
Hard code groups into the report
Here you include a table header row for each group you want to display, so these are always displayed in all cases.
Here you have some sort of conditional expression to display the values, e.g. For each group row it will be tailored to that group:
=Sum(IIf(Fields!AgeGroup.Value = "5-16", Fields!Amount.Value, Nothing)
This is not too flexible and will need updates as you change groups, and doesn't have as many options for layout. There is still only one DataSet call, so that is a plus.
Subreports
You can have a parent DataSet that displays one row for each age group, then embed a subreport in each row that displays the data you want for that row.
This allows you flexibility in layout but it will add complexity to the report(s) and will mean that you make a lot of DataSet calls that could be avoided with other options.
I know this is old, but I wanted to elaborate on Ian's section 1 above using joins at the dataset level. (His answer was super helpful to me for a report I'm working on.)
per op:
Is the solution to have a separate dataset that brings back the entire list of categories and then somehow fit them together?
That is how I've handled it successfully, but you can do so without actually creating a separate dataset by using common table expressions (or temp tables, of course).
For these example tables:
AGE_Table
ID Group Group_Desc Toys
1 A 00-10 Teddy Bear
2 B 11-20 Video Game
3 C 21-30 Sports Car
4 D 31-40 Mansion
5 E 41-50 Jewelry
People_Table (filtered for whatever date)
ID Name Age Gender Age_Group
1 Ariel 07 F A
2 Brandon 23 M C
3 Chelsea 27 F C
4 Derek 06 M A
You want to see 2 results for the 00-10 row, 2 for the 21-30 row, and then still see rows for the other age groups even if there aren't any results.
We want to create a dataset with all the different age groupings and then join on it. Behold a solution using common table expressions:
with CTE_Age AS
(SELECT Distinct Age_Group from AGE_Table)
SELECT ID, Name, Age, Gender, CTE_Age.Age_Group FROM People_Table
RIGHT JOIN CTE_Age ON
People_Table.Age_Group = CTE_Age.Age_Group
This will return:
ID Name Age Gender Age_Group
1 Ariel 7 F A
4 Derek 6 M A
NULL NULL NULL NULL B
2 Brandon 23 M C
3 Chelsea 27 F C
NULL NULL NULL NULL D
NULL NULL NULL NULL E
Once you have that in your dataset, you can change NULL values to 0 on the report builder side -- I think in 2008R2 the default is just blank.
I need to create report with table which looks like this
Country 1 Country 2 Country 3 Total
Category 1 1(2) 2(1) 5(6) 8(9)
Category 2 2(3) 2(1) 4(0) 8(4)
Category 3 3(2) 2(1) 3(1) 8(4)
Total 6(7) 6(3) 12(7) 24(17)
Report contains data about TFS WI's and has information about current week's WI count and last weeks WI count (in brackets)
Data set on which this report is based on MDX query against TFS warehousw cube and has such structure:
Category Country Week Count
1 1 this 1
1 2 this 2
1 3 this 5
1 1 last 2
1 2 last 1
1 3 last 6
Trouble is, I cann't find a way how to concatenate data about current and last weeks incident count in one cell. I have toyed around with idea to do it in MDX, but with my limited MDX skills I can't see how it could be done.
Rowgroup on Category.
Columngroup on Country.
Inside the cell you should be able to have 2 placeholders with the second one in brackets. The first expression should be:
=Sum(iif(Fields!Week.Value = "this", Fields!Count.Value, 0))
The second one should be:
=Sum(iif(Fields!Week.Value = "last", Fields!Count.Value, 0))
In MDX you could create two calcs - this and last week (of course you'll need to change this to work with your cube):
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[thisWeekCount] AS
([Date].[Week].[this], [Measures].[Count])
MEMBER [Measures].[lastWeekCount] AS
([Date].[Week].[last], [Measures].[Count])
SELECT
{
[Measures].[thisWeekCount],
[Measures].[lastWeekCount]
} ON 0,
{
...
} ON 1
FROM [Your Cube]
Then, you can use them within placeholders as jimconstable explained, but without the iif functions.
Thank you all for your answers!
I found out that main problem (reporting services allows only one measure on columns) can be solved by using Analysis server OLE DB provider. There are some drawbacks, like that parameters are not supported, but I can live with this.
